there an [G]old fashioned preacher talked the straight and narrow[C] way [Eb]

for what few [G]coins the congre[D]gation could [G]afford

[G]dressed in all our Sunday best we sat on pews of solid[C] oak [Eb]

and I [G]remember how our voices filled the [D]air

how Momma [G]sounded like an angel on those [G7]high soprano [C]notes [Eb]

when the[G] roll is called up[D] yonder I'll be[G] there

[G]looking back now that [G7]little mountain [C]church house

has [G]become my life's corner[D]stone

it was [G]there in that [G7]little mountain [C]church house

I first [G]heard the Word to [D]base my [D7]life [G]upon

(Instrumental refrain chords)

at the all day Sunday singings and dinner on the ground

many were the souls that were revived

while the brothers and sisters who'd gone on to glory land

slept in peace in the maple grove nearly

looking back now that little mountain church house

has become my life's cornerstone

it was there in that little mountain church house

I first heard the Word to base my life upon

(A capella line 1-2)

looking back now that little mountain church house

has become my life's cornerstone

(accompanied)

it was there in that little mountain church house

I first heard the Word to base my life upon

I first heard the Word to base my life upon
